- This video was shot at the Hamburg Turnpike crossing in Riverdale New Jersey
After a harsh winter, i was able to get back to this crossing to catch the 99 and seeing that this is a busy road, when the 99 does come through, it makes drivers very angry.

Ahh, the screaming turbos of the SD60s. Nice video.
+Kevin the train hunter That was 3800'S turbo.
Thank You
Freedomtowerman Productions cool.
Cool! The only time this crossing made me angry was when it malfunctioned during rush hour.
Thanks
I remember those days, this still does on acasion. Well thats what the NYS&W signal maintainer told me.
Ah, interesting. Well I guess it's bound to happen.
Look Out For The Train Mathews Ave is Notorious for malfunctions.
On that road, near a highway exit? That won't end well if it hits during rush hour.
Am i missing something here? I dont notice any angry people. What time in the video is it?
Hi train, nice to see you.
This is what get people so fed up about all the time! But I have a clever plan. They should build a bridge right next to the crossing over the tracks so the drivers WON'T get so fed up. Like, they'd build it on one side of the crossing and finish it on the other. They should do the same on the other lane as well.
+Angie H You have a good idea Angie, but it most likly won't happen. The town of Riverdale wont spend all that money to build an overpass, just because the crossing gets a little busy. Plus the train action here is not that frequent enough to warrent a bridge. I see your point and agree, but the likely hood of that happening is very slim.
Freedomtowerman Productions what I said WOULD be a waste of money.
Nice shot!
Thank You Bob!
Well, at least the train was quick about it lol !!!!
Just recently started seeing the reefer car on the SU99.
Yeah, i noticed that too, must be a new customer.
Nice!
+Crossingrailfancal96 Productions Thank You!
wow. listen to the dynamic brake fans scream.!!!!!
Can someone explain me why the lights keep going dark and then back on when their blinking?
Or is it just a
"camera VS LED"
+Matias Kurvinen Its the camera vs LED
Camera vs LED
Why did the lights look like they were flickering on and off.
Its the frame rate of my camera and the LED lights
Your camera must really hate those lights.
Yea i does :p
Angry grumpy people you don't understand Trains are bringing food on table .
Mathews Ave the next RXR Crossing West of this RXR Crossing (Paterson-Hamburg Turnpike) doesn't do that
Mathews Ave isn't as busy as this road is
Watch close, Why did the lights quit working at 1:38 for a few seconds?
It seems like it, but no, its just my camera's frame rate with the LEDs
I would be willing to say that the railroad was there before the hiway was built . Raise the taxes 10% & build an over-pass so all of the whinners could drive over the over-pass and would not have to stop a few minutes for a train to pass .
00:59 Penn Central hopper car
Good Eye
Yep. theres 2 of them, they are stull used by NYS&W but not as Penn Central anymore
There's a problem with the lights they keep turning on and off
+Theun Boxers They were working fine, its the framerate of the LEDs with my camera.
01:43 power outage on railroad crossing??
The railroad crossing was operating normal, its just some cameras sometimes cause a fade in LED lights in certain points of a video.
Nope WCH modules are crap so they do a full fade out and fade in unlike Safetran or any other good brand.
WCH EBells are also turds in a metal shell. If I worked on a railroad I'd replace every piece of WCH equipment possible and sell it to collectors. Safetran and GS eBells are better (except the rare Safetran type 1 bell, that one is way too quiet and sounds awful).
I hate WCH e-bells, however WCH m-bells are my favourite common m-bells. Believe it or not, but Safetran Type 1 e-bells are my favourite e-bell. WCH dotted LED's are my least favourite lights. All other LED's are ok. I like all incandescent lights, including WCH.
WCH MBells are decent but I like the RACO ones better
+realimbored668 WCH has better mechanisms than Safetran. As you see the videos from Railfan Cal that those safetran mechanisms sound loud and annoying. Fruitridge are and 2nd Ave had fast gate drop problems
Why do the lights go on off on off?
Its my camera doing this, the frame rate
The Signal Bases?!
i don't include those
...... makes drivers angry" are those drivers so stupid as to be angry for a train???
no, they are not stupid, the train passed through during Rush Hour which makes people mad
is anyone else tired of the graffiti? Looks like sh!t and it's almost become part of the normal railroading landscape.
